Miksi Early Access?

Our core 5v5 gameplay is solid, but we're still refining progression systems, UI, and map objectives. These elements need extensive playtesting and community feedback, which makes Early Access the perfect stage to involve our players in shaping the final experience.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

We expect to remain in Early Access for 12–16 months. During that time, we’ll continue refining core systems, adding key features, and iterating based on player feedback. Our Alpha community has already helped us improve the game significantly, and we’re excited to open the doors to more players and see how far we can take it together.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

We plan on moving out of Early Access when we have 31 ships, more resources, and 14 captains. Additionally, we want to use Early Access to polish and iterate on our UI based on player feedback. Finally, we plan on layering in a social objective for playing matches by layering in a 4X-inspired meta-game where every match counts towards conquering territory on a Risk-like map.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

The game is fully playable with 5v5 matches, matchmaking, custom games, ranks, leaderboards, and match rewards that let you craft unique ship skins.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

Sirocco is, and will be, free-to-play. Captains can be purchased or unlocked through playing. Ships will always be accessible to all players. Ship skins will be crafted via resources which you can earn from playing or through purchasing Shipments via our store. There are no plans to change prices or business model on full release.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

Feedback, feedback, feedback. Games like ours are incredibly rich and complex, so quality community feedback and discussion from players (that are often better than us) is the difference between our game being “good” and it being “great.” Our game’s depth often comes from the players who push its limits and help us see what we might miss, so we’re looking for input on everything—from balance to features to social tools—and we’re especially eager to hear thoughts on the social systems we’ll be building during Early Access. Please use our Discord or Feedback form accessible in-game to communicate with us!
